The Lycan's Flame
Her love is a weapon. It's killed before. And this time, she's sworn it won't happen again. Everyone at Blackthorn University thinks Kara is just another human girl juggling midterms, frat parties, and overpriced lattes. No one suspects the truth: that she's a Phoenix shifter, hiding in plain sight in a world ruled by werewolves and lycans. Even her closest friends don't know the fire simmering beneath her skin. But Kara isn't just hiding from them, she's hiding from fate. From the one thing she dreads more than anything else: her mate. She's done letting her love be a death sentence. She won't survive another loss. The scars she bears run deeper than flesh. So when Ryker, the dangerously magnetic lycan General, realizes Kara is his fated mate, she does exactly what she swore she would. She pushes him away. Again. And again. And again. But lycans don't walk away from their mates. And Ryker? He's dominant, possessive, and utterly relentless. He's a storm she can't outrun, a flame that won't go out. And every heated glance, every stolen moment, threatens to shatter the walls she's spent years building. As secrets ignite and her past begins to unravel, Kara must face the truth: Can she let herself love again, knowing it could destroy them both? Or will her lies-and the deadly curse entwined with her love-be the very thing that dooms them forever?Complete

HIS SECRET
In a world that had long since turned its back on him, she was the flicker of warmth he never deserved. He kept her close, shielding her from the chaos that hunted them both, whispering promises he wasn't sure he could keep. He carried secrets-ones that could unravel everything between them. So he lied. Not with words, but with silence. With every quiet moment, every deflection, every "not now," he built a wall between her heart and the truth. And though he succeeded in protecting her from the darkness he buried, he began to lose her in the process. Her patience thinned. Her questions grew sharper. Her eyes, once filled with trust, now searched him for answers he refused to give. But then he discovered the truth he was hiding was only the beginning-a fragment of something far more devastating. And with that revelation came a choice: to keep protecting her, or become the very thing she needed protection from. Could he bear the pain of what was coming? Could he still be her shield, or would he become her hunter-like the past he'd tried so desperately to escape? When the moment comes, he will have to choose. Love. Or revelation.
